Rework quote_arg()

MS Windows command line is handled in a weird way. This patch addresses:
 - Quote empty arguments
 - Only escape backslashes and double quotation marks inside quoted arguments
 - Quote arguments if they have asterisk or question marks to prevent expansion

The last one is not documented in the link provided in the patch. I encountered
that behavior on cmd.exe, Windows XP. MSYS not tested.
